In "Thinking" Safety, author Capt. Ashok Menon takes us on a refreshing journey into the risk-filled world of seafarers and the shipping industry and explores how we can eliminate accidents by understanding the fickle nature of our brain and its workings. He examines why some companies, in spite of spending hugely on safety training, still do not get the desired results of reduced number of accidents and losses. How can we make life for our precious seafarers, whose efforts support 90% of the world trade, safer so that they continue to sustain the quality of life of peoples across the globe? To keep this critical industry humming along and to attract new seafarers to this industry, we need to ensure that our seafarers can work and live safely as they go about their duties. So, can the shipping industry look at new ways of eliminating this "accident-proneness" of seafarers instead of just using the old tried and tested methods? Can we incorporate new knowledge from the field of neuroscience to enhance our training?
